Badass content ITT: Definition of badass BMW 5 series/them be fighting words!!!

Thought this deserved its own thread. This thing was hard to find cruising around down there(H2Oi), but it was a center piece at the show on Sunday. It’s an old 5 series, chopped, with a 2jz swap. Thing is unreal and the definition of sinister/badass.

i like the old military control panels. and the p-51 mustang-esque shark mouth

Thing is badass for sure

Just wish they went a differant route with it. THe Ratrod thing on a “newer” german car just doesnt do it for me… THing looks sickkk chopped thou

y is it that guys with beards make the look of the car even better lmao,

The steering wheel and door panels kill it. Would be sweet if he suicided the rear doors and got rid of the B-pillar

That car was SICK. I thought it had a 1J in it though

Thats uhh…different!

I’ve seen other pictures of this o the internetz he also has a slammed trailer he tows with it also.

I posted a picture of that car a few days ago in the bad ass pix thread

A yoke and some military gray trim for the doors would really complete the theme.

maybe im the only one but, REALLY? thats cool???..i understand it’s unique but,i dont know whatever. it is what it is. carry on.

Its def not the 1st thing Id do with a BMW ^^ :lol

You are the only one

Car has a long story and was totaled at least once, maybe twice, can’t remember. The guy has a few other cars including a white e36 with an open-ITB S54B32 swap using the entire e46 harness so this e28 is just a side project. Hate it or love it… you’re staring at it and dropping what you’re doing to listen to it when it drives by.

The wheels are plated 24k gold, btw :rofl

Please tell me youre kidding… :lol

and another of this one http://ll.speedhunters.com/u/f/eagames/NFS/speedhunters.com/Images/Jacco%20Willemsen/1%20random%20snap/6543.jpg

im with ya man, it’s kinda cool in its own sort of way, but the way I determine if I like something is if I would personally buy it/drive it… I wouldnt pay more then a grand for that thing and if I DID buy it, it’d be as a joke… Kinda how I almost bought a yellow VW beetle with flower wheels and was gonna throw a turbo vr6 in it lol…

You’re not the only one…I agree that is unique and Im sure they made it look like that for a reason…Im sure it was a well thought out plan but it looks like a redneck hack job…
